Nintendo says it’s not planning another Switch 2 price hike

Nintendo’s president says it will have ‘sufficient’ RAM as shortages drive up console prices.

According to Reuters, Furukawa also gave an update on the RAM shortage, saying, “There has been no major change to the memory situation and Nintendo is in a position to secure sufficient quantities.”

Earlier this week, one of Nintendo’s Switch 2 cartridge suppliers announced it plans to stop making ROM memory to focus on memory for data centers instead. Demand from AI data centers is driving the ongoing RAM shortages that’s leading to a wave of tech price increases. Microsoft has raised Xbox Series X / S prices multiple times now, increasing the Series S’s starting price from $299 to $499. The PS5 has also been hit with price hikes, taking its starting price up to $649.
